Maybe I'll try fishing with the main for a bit and if I really get into it, then a trolling motor. How much difference in fuel consumption would you guess between a 115 and a 9.9 on a 23' while trolling?

Sounds like the reliability of modern motors minimize the need for a "get back", especially when properly maintained and equipped. But what about trolling? I am not into fishing, but may give it another try!

Thanks so much. My son is still in the Navy and stationed in Everett. I got out eons ago. Thanks to all who served! Freedom isn't free.

This doesn't look like a bad deal: http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/bod/5297001525.html

Thanks for all the information, but I won't be needing that trailer. I have found a boat with a trailer.

Thanks Wandering Sagebrush. I'll be in touch if I go that direction.

Looks like a nice boat. Anxious to see your equipment list.

Would the trailer at the link below be acceptable for a C-Dory 22'? http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/boa/5306277851.html

I hope to be making a similar posting very soon!

Sunbeam, either you are psychic or you have been there, done that! It is actually sweet torture; reminds me of extended foreplay! :)

I want one! :(

Beautiful boat! Love the name too. Alligators? YIKES!

Google tells me there are 9 within a couple of hours of me. I hear they are few and far between north of here.

Why should I be concerned about the "complexity" of the EFI?

Thanks for all the thought provocation! THAT should keep me up tonight!

I thought about the 6HP, but it is a single and probably wouldn't be as smooth. What others came to mind? I just want to make the right choice. The only reason I wanted to stick with Suzuki is because of my anal retentiveness. 20+ years in aerospace quality tends to do that! Both the 22 and...

Mostly as a "get back", which is why I thought maybe "bigger is better", but possibly some trolling. I have never gotten into fishing, but I do live on an island, so I should give it another shot. Would the answer be the same for a 23' Venture? I am considering both the 22' and 23', and...

I sense some great adventure tales to come. You should keep a journal. Have fun and be safe. My wife will love the anchors story. She is a treasure/bargain hunter to the max!

Considering Suzuki's only, and assuming for the sake of argument that price is not a factor, which would be a better kicker for a 22': A 9.9 HP - DF9.9B EFI A 15 HP - DF15A EFI A 20 HP - DF20A EFI They each weigh in at 108 lbs.

Enjoy that boat! Meanwhile, my search continues. Saw a nice 22' today. Decisions, decisions.
